I have seen several Rollers on here but they get dibs'ed real quick.
This one didn't, i even bumped LambsYam sales thread as it was a killer deal, and i was sure it wouldn't fit me.
I had a late night moment of clarity.
I forgot to factor in headset stack as the Dolan is intergrated, so i dig out the the headset i have stashed from another bike and measure up again....... the Roller is on a par with the Dolan but with a slacker seat tube, maybe slightly slacker head tube. I reckon i can fit a 56 and not a 59cm frame.
Strangely the frame hasn't gone yet and another price drop.
Call Dibs, closely followed by another.
New ground for me, my first forum purchase (should have been a forum summer cap).
Some PM's
I arrange to meet a complete stranger in Londons dangerous London with a wad of cash on me.
I have to look for a fella with a piss-yellow frame and he has to look for a lanky hell's angel thing.
Communication was excellent, i travelled in on the train to St Panc's, chopped down to E&C on the tube, and within minutes of arriving, LambsYam appeared and the deal was done.
